Q1 The Knicks are fighting over picks. Where has this been the last five years? I hate it when a non-3 shooter bricks and the carom ignites an easy fast break for the opponent. Randle for all his positives should not be taking those shots. Aaaaannnd Mitch is out. Randle does not look good tonight. Bad shot selection, trying to do too much. Come on Mitch!!!
Q2 Knox looks clueless on defense. He also has extraordinarily high arc on his 3 ball. And just like that the Knicks are down 18 points.

Randle and RJ played great as did Mitch. No quit in this team. Randle and some of those men looked spent. I hope they get healthy in time to give Randle and others some relief. Sheesh!!

More importantly we won behind another monster game from Randle and key contributions from Knox including a HUGE block and save when the Knicks needed it most. I should mention Rivers, Payton and Mitch. I should also mention how my suggestion he be benched has fueled Elfrid Payton to his recent resurgence. You are welcome gang. 😎

Excellent point. A couple guys played big minutes. And very hard minutes.

I’m so glad Rose was smart enough to give Austin Rivers a three year deal instead of the one year with options deals they’ve given out lately. Please stay a Knick forever, Austin! And he says all the right things too. He’ll be a great mentor for the younger Knicks like IQ. You know what the difference is between the Rose signings and the Mills signings? With the Mills signings, you thought they were pretty good players, but when they became Knicks and you saw them every night you realized they were terribly inconsistent. With the Rose players like Rivers and Burks, the more you see them the more you love them. I’d like to see them throw a couple of years on Burks’ contract too. Pretty amazing all this winning is being done with both Burks and Obi out. Rebecca Harlow made a great comment to Austin Rivers after the game about imagining if he went off like that in the fourth quarter in front of a full house in MSG what the place would be like. I miss the fans!

Coaches not so much. 😎 Credit must go to Thibodeau. And Rose gets credit for that signing. 😎

Thanks Bill for a great job naming guys he dislikes and spurring them onto great games.
Let me try; "I can't stand the useless play of":
1st round picks: Dennis Smith Jr., Obi Toppin, Frank Ntilikina. All spending more time sitting out than going out on the court.
Add Nerlens Noel and Alec Burks (recently) to the all unable to perform list.
And Tom Thibodaux for losing 3 games so far.
Tongue firmly implanted in cheek.

Has to stop watching to have dinner, and then well... there's some minor kerfuffle taking place in our country that kind of trumped my going back to the game. Glad we won. plenty more opportunities to watch the team but the fact they are now fighting over picks and making much crisper switches is a very very good sign.

Yeah that game last night was much needed distraction if only for a few hours from YESTERDAY. 😳

I don’t know what is more interesting, the game or Trend’s unique culinary habits. 😎 I mean the game started at 7:30 and halftime was about 8:45 which is mighty late for dinner. Did y’all do a Euro step to the dining room Trend? 😎😎😎 BTW, today’s technology allows you to watch games on the tv while following news on a smart phone or tablet. It’s not that hard either.
Who would have thunk that my former least favorite player Austin Rivers was the catalyst for this unlikely come from behind win? Trend missed a doozy!!! Pay attention to the script though. The Knicks don’t hit their treys they lose like being down 18 in a first half that saw the Knicks hit just 2 of 15 trey attempts. Thanks to Knox and Rivers they hit their threes in the second half and the Knicks win pulling away. Wonderful game. Kudos to Mitch, Randle, Payton and especially Rivers who was ice cold clutch. I’m warming up to him fast!😎
BTW, special shout out to Elfrid Payton who continues to play effective basketball. I’m thinking between Payton, Rivers and Quickley the Knicks no longer have a PG problem. 😎

I dunno Bill. In south Florida and high brow Brooklyn they do eat dinner late. Personally I eat dinner at 4. And at 7. And at Midnight.

Since when can you not eat dinner and watch the game at the same time? Is this some kind of multitasking that I should be commended for because not only can I do both at the same time, I can also throw in internet surfing! Yes my phone smells just like chicken, but who cares? You should smell it after I come out of the bathroom!
